At the center of this graphic story is the epic confrontation that raged between engineer Ralph Baer - inventor of the first video game console - and Nolan Bushnell - founder of Atari, who stole the idea from Ralph and created the game PONG. Thus began the battle for the title of "Father of Video Games".
